One possible way is through the KDE control centre -- I think that's a 
KDE-general tool and not distro specific:

 From the left-side menu of the control centre, choose Components -> 
File Associations.

Under "known types" find text->html and make sure your preferred browser 
is at the top of the list in the "Applications Order".

HTH. This was on KDE 3.4.2.
